OKLAHOMA INDIAN TRIBE EDUCATION GUIDE
Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma (Oklahoma Social Studies Standards, OSDE)
Tribe: Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma
Tribal website(s): http//www.iowanation.org
1. Migration/movement/forced removal
Oklahoma History C3 Standard 2.3 “Integrate visual and textual evidence to explain the reasons for and trace the migrations of Native American peoples including the Five Tribes into present-day Oklahoma, the Indian Removal Act of 1830, and tribal resistance to the forced relocations.”
Oklahoma History C3 Standard 2.7 “Compare and contrast multiple points of view to evaluate the impact of the Dawes Act which resulted in the loss of tribal communal lands and the redistribution of lands by various means including land runs as typified by the Unassigned Lands and the Cherokee Outlet, lotteries, and tribal allotments.”
• Original Homeland – present day state of Iowa
• Location In Oklahoma – Perkins, Oklahoma
The Iowa or Ioway, lived for the majority of its recorded history in what is now the state of Iowa. The Iowas call themselves the Bah-Kho-Je which means grey snow, probably derived from the fact that during the winter months their dwellings looked grey, as they were covered with fire-smoked snow. The name Iowa is a French term for the tribe and has an unknown connection with 'marrow.'
The Iowas began as a Woodland culture, but because of their migration to the south and west, they began to adopt elements of the Plains culture, thus culminating in the mixture of the two. The Iowa Nation was probably indigenous to the Great Lakes areas and part of the Winnebago Nation. At some point a portion moved southward, where they separated again. The portion which stayed closest to the Mississippi River became the Iowa; the remainder became the Otoe and Missouria.
The Iowa Tribe relocated many times during its history; the mouth of the Rock River in present Illinois, the Root River in present Iowa, the Red Pipestone Quarry in southwestern Minnesota in the earliest historical period of 1600, and the Spirit Lake/Lake Okiboji area of what is now Iowa
